Monitoring queue statistics using the phone
Agents who have permission to monitor queue statistics can hear the current statistics for a
queue at any time by picking up a Strata CS phone and dialing
*55. The system prompts them
to select the queue for which they want to hear statistics.
Dialing
*55 plays the queue statistics shown in the following table. Statistic totals are kept since
midnight at the beginning of the current day.
Supervising other agents’ calls _____________________________
Agents can use the Supervise commands—Monitor, Coach, and Join—to supervise other
agents’ calls. For an explanation of Monitor, Coach, and Join, see “Supervising other users’
calls” on page 12-14.
Supervising in a call center is a separate feature from supervising personal calls, and the two are
controlled by different permissions, as follows:
Q Supervising personal calls. Supervising personal calls requires Strata CS user
permissions set up by your system administrator. Users with only these permissions
cannot supervise call center calls.
Q Supervising call center calls. To supervise call center calls, you must be a call center
agent with agent permissions set up per queue by your queue administrator. As a call
center supervisor, you can supervise only other agents in your queue, and only their
queue calls, not their personal calls.
Note: For you to supervise an agent’s outbound calls, the agent must have associated his or her
outbound calls with the queue. See
“Placing calls from a queue” on page B-8.
